I did the same thing, migrated from P3P to P4. I still have my P3P and I've done a lot of comparing between the two craft. You may not be thrilled with the P4 range at first, I wasn't. My stock P4 didn't have the range of my stock P3P, it was less than half. The P4 was always losing control signal at about 4000', even with windsurfer installed, when my P3P would go 10K easily, and often to 15000' in rural or areas over water with windsurfer.
I would also argue about your expectation of less prop in the video as wishful thinking. It's just not true. If you measure both birds, the camera on the P4 is 9mm higher than the P3P. The DJI propaganda that said the motors are mounted higher is totally false, the motors are identical height, but the camera is mounted higher. Mathematics tells me if the camera is higher in relation to the props, overall more prop spin will shown in the camera view, and that's what I see happening in my captures if I'm not careful.
Regarding the 40+mph speed, YES it's fun, but forget about capturing video in S mode, you'll get way too much prop in the camera view. And even in P mode with OA disabled, you can do about 32mph, but the props get in the view too often also. Only in P mode with OA enabled (17mph to 19mph tops) you will be fairly safe of no props in the view. By the way, with OA enable DJI says it will do 22mph, mine won't, unless you enable RTH and then it will, exactly 22mph.
You know how your P3 would lose video when you get out to the range limit, but you still had control of the craft, which allows you to ascend to regain video? The P4 doesn't work that way because the RC has a weak signal. Most of the time when you lose signal with a P4, you lose the control signal first, which automatically disconnects video too. This means you'll have more auto RTH events with P4 than P3P. My P3P has never lost control signal, ever.
If you're disappointed in the P4 range, many P4 owners buy the DBS02 antenna and Sunhan amps. You'll need that setup to be happy. Optionally you can buy an Inspire RC (GL658A) like I did,
read about it here. That controller will allow the P4 to match what the P3P can do for range. The best range is achieved in my case by using the 32ch hack, fly ch30 with transmission quality set to 4mbps. My P4/GL658A will now do 3+miles in most rural areas or over water.
